Martagon, but often larger and tinged purple: st. stout, 3-6 ft. high, usually slightly pubescent: leaves 30—10, horizontal or semi-erect, 2-4 in. long, 1/2 - 1 in. wide: flowers 1-30, 3-5 in. diam., with waxy segms. of a rich golden yellow sometimes tinged purple and slightly, or not at all, spotted deep purple; anthers greenish or orange; the odor is rather disagreeable. June, early July. Caucasus Mts. and N. Persia. —One of the most stately and beautiful of all lilies, succeeding well in almost any soil or situation and highly recommended for general cultured Var. Szovitzianum, Hort. (L. Szovitzianum, Fisch. & Lall.). Produces larger flowers with broader, less reflexed segms. of a lemon- or canary-yellow color, more thickly dotted purple and with reddish brown anthers; the filaments are entirely free or separate, whereas in the type they are supposed to be joined or united at their base, although this is not always the case.
